Why do people expect documentaries to be perfectly balanced? If the worlds issues were equally reported on, why would someone need to make a film to spread a message? Or, why are these people who dismiss a films message because of the directors bias not doing their own homework to see the other side, and instead expect this balance to be handed to them? Yes, perhaps someone would be more convincing if they included more opposing voices, but didnt you all learn in school that writing an essay is about being persuasive, and supporting your arguments -- not undermining them or making your point ambiguous?
